Did you get a GT4 RS ? If you did what do you think of it compared to the various 991/992GT3 RSs you've owned. I love mine to bits and especially appreciate the compactness compared to the 992. It feels more old school in that it has less electric gizmos to help you such as E diff, RAS etc making it feel more natural to drive.

I’d enjoy a review of PEC. Congrats and enjoy.

Congratulations Chris!!
I realize you might not be at liberty to say, but any idea when the spyder RS will be revealed? And are they still planning the low number of units that you mentioned early on in the spyder rs thread? Thank you!

I think you'll really like it if fun and emotion is important to you. Not quite as clinically accomplished as a 992GT3 but much more involving and immersive to drive. It feels like it is hard wired into your synapses when you drive.
One major benefit is it really feels compact compared to recent 992s which makes a difference when driving along narrow sinuous B roads, I have two track days in May, Oulton Park and Anglesey which I'm looking forward to see how well it goes there. Neither track is smooth like a GP circuit but very technical in different ways so should suit the 4RS.
